Re: MicroB v.s. Firefox v.s. Opera. Which one in your opinion is the best?
microb all the way, I like the double tap zoom to block feature. If Opera had that I'd probably use Opera though. And if Fennec matured a bit more and didn't seem so sluggish I might consider that too.

Opera all the way. So much better than default browser, took awhile to get used but gotta love it now

Re: What is your main mobile browser?
My opinions about firefox are terrible because is almost impossible to use virtual keyboard.

Re: What is your main mobile browser?
On my N900 I usually use MicroB and use Fennec as an alternative sometimes. If a site won't work in those for some reason, I'll try Opera and Chrome. I tried Tear once but all it did was crash hildon-desktop every time. So I uninstalled it.
I like the speed of MicroB, the panning and swirl zoom is great. Hover mode, Flash support are also good features. Keyboard scrolling is broken since PR1.2 and double-tap zooming is often unpredictable. I really like the tabbed UI of Fennec and the add-on support. It's slower than MicroB and Flash is really slow. It can handle some sites better than MicroB (maybe it's using a newer rendering engine). It seems to be more "desktop-compatible". |
Re: What is your main mobile browser?
if i'm messing with the terminal at the same time, microb, but just for the casual browsing i have to say opera. not as fluid as i'd like as it seems to hang often with page load, but generally speaking it is fast. iceweasel for the access to company schedule; thank you qole for easy debian and java!

Re: What is your main mobile browser?
microb seems to be the best for me so far, Firefox is OK but with only a couple of plug-ins it gets pretty sluggish. microb loads quickly and pages render speedily and accurately

Re: What is your main mobile browser?
I wanted to like something else more, but I just keep coming back to microb. It may not be the latest, greatest, whiz-bangiest, but it (usually) just works. I have tried Opera and Tear, and found neither overwhelmingly better. I do like firefox/fennec, but my poor N810 wheezes under the strain of running it.

Re: What is your main mobile browser?
microb for me the others dont come anywhere near.

Re: What is your main mobile browser?
Microb.
Opera is ultrafast but I find microb more intuitive, love those gestures (even the awkward zoom - its funny but you can zoom one handed which requires some finger gymnastics to do with multitouch) and the integration with the task manager. However I hate the long click, i can never get it to work without the stylus. It's a shame firefox sync and gears dont work on it and that probably the engine wont get updated. Even 1.9.2 has some cool new features. ________ WEB SHOWS |
